Default Breakers compatible with Federal Pacific Stab-Lok Load Center

just too add.

arc fault breakers can detect faults at under their rating limit and trip.

plus even high current devices can and do have wiring rated lower than say 14 gauge fr 15 amp circuit breaker.

the NEC figures whatever the wire used inside a appliance is up to the appliance manufacturer
